IOCTL_CONSOLE_SETCONTROLCEVENT (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This I/O control code (IOCTL) allows a console application to stop its current process by using the keyboard command CRTL+C. The DeviceIoControl function calls this IOCTL.

This replaces the deprecated IOCTL_CONSOLE_SETCONTROLCHANDLER.

Parameters

• hDevice
  [in] Set to the handle of the device.

• dwIoControlCode
  [in] Set to IOCTL_CONSOLE_SETCONTROLCHANDLER.

• lpInBuf
  [in] Set to the handle for the console's current process.

• nInBufSize
  [in] Set to sizeof(DWORD).

Return Values

Calling this the first time will turn enable the console to stop the indicated process by using CTRL+C. Passing the same process in on a second call will disable the console from stopping the process on CTRL+C.

TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure.
